Fulham goalkeeper Bernd Leno is full of praise for teammate Willian.

The veteran midfielder, formerly of Chelsea and Arsenal, returned to London last summer after a spell at home in Brazil.

"Willian is the best," said Leno.

"He is 34 years old, but he looks 25 years old and plays the same way. He understands the game, he has had a great career, but he continues to work hard."

Leno and Willian played together at Arsenal. The 34-year-old has made 22 appearances for Fulham in all competitions this season, with 3 goals and 3 assists.
